1. I hope for your favor, it is my only desire
O you who are arrogant and needy

2. O you whose hands bestow generosity
From every downpour and rain of success

3. O rain of generosity, nay clouds of talent
And I say ocean of bounty, I do not exaggerate

4. Make haste with what you have promised me for long
You have gifted it garments of brocade

5. For poverty has exhausted me, keep it away from me
Completely, and the doctor has despaired of curing me

6. All sorts of worries have increased for me
And clashed like clashing waves

7. May your help bring clarity to me
Dispelling the clouds of worries and the dark night of my poverty

8. My Lord, O crown of splendor, the one who
Enriches creation beyond any lamp's glow

9. Take her as a bride whose cheek is unveiled
A virgin after being hidden by my thoughts and creativity

10. I have brought these pearls to you, strung together
And pearls are not gifted except to a crown

11. I still have honor, prosperity, clear living
And balance of temperament

12. And I remain delighted with joys
Despite the hatred of enviers and all who praise me

13. The leaves of the garden have not twittered, nor have I become
A nightingale enamored with love's whispers
